Polyv, Providing One-Stop Online Video Solutions

      “Polyv” is an online video hosting platform launched by Yifang Information Technology Co., Ltd. As a video cloud service provider, it offers one-stop commercial online video solutions for websites that need to publish videos.

Product Overview:

      “Polyv” primarily provides video hosting, live streaming, custom video app development, video CDN, and live streaming acceleration. It greatly simplifies the process for website owners to add video functionality to their sites.

        Users register and log in to its web-based management console, upload videos, and copy the generated code to their own websites to add professional video features. The management console interface is business-oriented with a clear structure, offering the following three main functions:

• Video Management: Used for uploading and managing videos, providing features such as transcoding, live streaming, player appearance and functionality customization, video management, watermarking, and subtitle addition. After uploading, the provided code can be embedded into the target website to enable video functionality, and videos can also be shared to social networks like Weibo with one click.
• Ad Management: Used for adding and managing ads. Self-placed ads and Google ads can be displayed in various formats such as pre-roll, post-roll, pause, and overlay, and can be delivered by date, time period, or CPM.
• Data Analytics: Provides five types of data statistics: storage space, viewers, traffic, playback duration, and ads.

      “Polyv” is a typical SaaS provider, offering different features and paid services for enterprises, government websites, media sites, and educational institutions that need to embed online videos.

Market Position:

      “Polyv” positions itself as a video service provider, with its main competitor being CC Video, which has a similar focus. The latter’s advantage lies in its longer operational history, building a certain reputation and brand strength; the former’s advantages include its team, technology, lower operational costs, and product pricing.

        About 90% of its team comes from NetEase’s technical department, with multiple proprietary technologies, and the product has grown rapidly. Launched in early October 2012, it now has two agents, over 2,250 enterprise users, more than 300 video acceleration nodes, over 2,000 servers, and simultaneously uses three video CDN service providers. It is also the first domestic video cloud service provider capable of serving overseas markets.
